OUR PUBLISHING COMMITMENT
Faith is not simply a category we publish.
It is part of who we are.
Morning Grace Press is a Christian publishing company committed to creating and supporting work that honors God, reflects biblical values, and contributes meaningfully to the lives of readers.
For that reason, every project submitted for Author Services is reviewed for alignment with our mission, values, and publishing standards. We reserve the right to decline projects that are not a good fit for Morning Grace Press.
Author Services are available only for projects that align with the mission and values of Morning Grace Press. Acceptance for Author Services does not automatically mean that a project will be published under the Morning Grace Press imprint; publication under the Morning Grace Press imprint requires separate acceptance and a Publishing Agreement.
